Hamlets of Alberta
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Hamlets in the province of Alberta, Canada, are unincorporated communities with more than five dwellings.
They are designated as hamlets by the council of a municipal district or county when a community has a generally accepted name and boundary.[1]. Hamlets can contain non-residential areas within their boundaries, and are administered by the municipal districts. When population reaches 300, hamlets can be incorporated as villages.
